Dallas Stars: The Energy Drink

In case you missed the hockey team last season, now you can catch the Dallas Stars Energy Drink. I found this can at Target at Skillman and Abrams yesterday. While the drink itself is fairly typical of its genre (fizzy, sugary and urpy), its Web site’s Incredible Hulk-like participants made me weepy for the Lou Ferrigno version of the Marvel comic book character. Looks like the Dallas-based makers of this drink are slapping the names of teams, golf clubs, casinos, just about anything, on the side of these 16-ounce cans, and distributing them. I’m not sure why drinking sugar water might convince a person to paint themselves green and scream, but maybe if I drink a few more cans, I’ll understand.

Love the Herb Alpert album cover behind it - that’s one of my favorite albums.

Maybe it’s about time we do a roundup of DFW’s best vinyl shops…(this energy drink thing certainly isn’t going anywhere).

And happy belated birthday.

Dave - great idea! Or biggest vinyl collectors in Dallas and what’s in their collection. I’d love to know who’s got what.

Rocking the vicious, extreme “Lonely Bull” avalanche blast, scro’s.

Havoc has been around for a couple of years, and was a sponsor of the Stars’ Fanatics section (332) through the 2006-07 and 2007-08 seasons.
